G.D. Anderson 1957 Journal Feb. 22. Trip to Valencia Fajon Study Area, Santa Cruz Co., Cal. Left Berkeley at 9 A.M. Arrived Valencia Fajon, 11:30 A.M. after 1 stop in Santa Cruz for lunch. Sign of much recent rainfall; skies now overcast. Rain began about a little after noon. It rained steadily throughout the day & night. A thorough search was made of the "pond" area. No standing water as yet although the soil was spongy & soaked water in places. No salamanders found here. 1 adult, gravid F-F located in oak woods, marked & released. Left Valencia at 3 pm and checked "La Selva Beach" locality. There is some standing water here (see fieldnotes spec. account). Found 1 new Cambrystoma. Later I visited Mr. Edwards who owns this land & gave his permission to work at the locality anytime. He mentioned that a friend of his has a pond on Spring Valley Road about 1/4 mi W of his pond. He reports that large black salamanders with "yellow" markings are found in this when it is drained. These could be A. trivirum if they are as large as he claims. The dead trivirum found last year was close to Spring Valley Road. Mr. Edwards may be very helpful as study proceeds. After supper returned to Valencia. Worked Bonita from 6:45 to 8:40 - marking 12 & & + 3 F-F. Want to "La Selva Beach" area & collected 3 & &
